It is proposed to build two single-storey houses with separate access roads, septic tanks and percolation areas on two individual adjacent sites at Bredagh Glen, Moville. The site of the proposed development is near a burial ground. Eight trenches were excavated across the two sites, focusing on the locations of the proposed houses, accesses and septic tank/percolation areas. All of the trenches excavated measured 10m long and 1.6m wide. There was no evidence of archaeological activity on the site.
